About Ribs

Ribs are a popular cut of meat typically derived from pork or beef, celebrated for their rich flavor and tender texture. Originating from various cuisines worldwide, ribs are a staple in American barbecue, Chinese stir-fries, and Korean grilled dishes. They are often seasoned, marinated, or slow-cooked, resulting in smoky or savory profiles depending on preparation. Nutritionally, ribs are a good source of protein, essential for muscle growth and repair, and they also contain minerals like phosphorus and zinc. However, they can be high in saturated fats and calories, particularly when served with sugary barbecue sauces or glazes. To make ribs healthier, opt for leaner cuts, trim excess fat, and pair them with nutrient-rich side dishes like vegetables or whole grains. While indulgent, ribs can fit into a balanced diet when enjoyed in moderation.
